The National Association of Software and Service Companies (Nasscom) has released a set of guidelines that will be instrumental in defining frameworks and act as common standards and protocols for researching, developing, and using Generative AI responsibly in India. 

The guidelines highlight certain obligations for researchers, developers, and users with emphasis on demonstrating reasonable caution and foresight by conducting comprehensive risk assessments and maintaining internal oversight throughout the entire lifecycle of a Generative AI solution. 

Nasscom stated that the preliminary guidelines were formulated in collaboration with the technology industry, a diverse group of AI experts, researchers, and practitioners from various disciplines, including representatives from academia and civil society.

Debjani Ghosh, President at Nasscom believes these guidelines are unique to India and is a proactive step towards building a transparent and robust roadmap for responsible build and use of AI.

The launch of ChatGPT last year has given the domain of AI a whole new dimension. Generative AI has emerged as a growing field and is quickly finding application and use cases in a plethora of industries.

“In the era of AI, a robust governance framework will provide the necessary structure and guidelines to ensure the smooth development and implementation of GenAI, fostering trust, accountability, and ethical decision-making. The guidelines would help the ecosystem unleash the true potential of AI, creating a future that harmoniously blends human ingenuity with technological advancement,” Anant Maheshwari, Chairperson, Nasscom, and President, Microsoft India, said.
